East of here...

Travel trends are similar to fashion trends or trends of any kind really. They come in waves. One summer it will be South America, the next its India. Some destinations will have a place in the Travel Hall of Fame like the UK, New York, Spain, Italy - those are classics, they never go out of style.

I predict that the next big travel destination will be the East. Sure, we've visited them before but its going to be big...like Brazil Big in the next year or so. I'm certain of it. Speaking of which, keep a look out for new audio travel guides you can download onto your phone about the city of Bangkok.

Remember to visit www.hummba.com and see if you can spot the hummba man! Last seen in Paris, rumours are that he's coming to Cape Town...watch this space.
